About OpenxAI

• OpenxAI is a permissionless, open AI network that enables anyone, anywhere to build and monetize AI apps and services using Web3 technologies — without banks, cloud accounts, approvals, or middlemen. The network is powered by decentralized GPU infrastructure and tokenized AI ownership, giving creators full control over their data, AI models, work, and rewards.
• Born in Australia five years ago as an open-source initiative, we have since partnered with some of the world’s largest data centers and GPU providers to push the boundaries of decentralized compute. With a worldwide GPU pool up to 80 percent cheaper than AWS, Google, Azure, or Hugging Face, OpenxAI enables anyone — from a solo developer with a bold idea to a global AI startup — to launch at scale, instantly.
• Our flagship platform, OpenxAI Studio, allows anyone to launch an AI company, deploy AI apps, or release AI agents in under five minutes — bringing production-grade AI to the hands of builders worldwide.
• Our team consists of 40+ contributors and AI and Web3 veterans from across the industry, including builders from Fantom, AWS, Chainlink, Solana, ICP, Binance, NEAR, and AragonDAO.

Responsibilities

• Develop and train AI models and agents for deployment on OpenxAI’s decentralized platform.
• Collaborate with senior engineers to optimize model performance and reduce computational costs.
• Implement smart contract-based integrations for tokenized compute and monetization features.
• Conduct experiments to test and improve AI algorithms in a decentralized environment.
• Contribute to documentation and testing to ensure robust, scalable AI solutions.

What You Will Get

• Direct access to a fast-scaling AI + Web3 project.
• Work closely with a high-performance founder and engineering team on mission-critical activities.
• Learn the inner workings of product, fundraising, growth, and partnerships.
• Full flexibility - remote, async-friendly, focus is on results.
• Growth opportunity to evolve into a senior engineering role or specialized AI position for the right candidate.

Requirements

• Current enrollment in or recent graduation from a Bachelor’s degree program in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field at an Australian university. Students in their final years are strongly encouraged to apply.
• Hands-on experience with AI/ML development through coursework, personal projects, internships, or research, including familiarity with frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, or similar.
• Basic understanding of blockchain or Web3 technologies (e.g., smart contracts, decentralized systems) is a plus.
• Proficiency in Python and experience with version control systems (e.g., Git).
• Eagerness to learn, adapt, and thrive in a dynamic, fast-moving startup environment.
